Server identity

The HP ProLiant DL380 G9 is a 2U rack server built for data-centre workloads that need dense compute and storage in a standard cabinet. It ships with a single eight-core Xeon processor, 32GB of DDR4 memory and two 600GB SAS drives on a Smart HBA H240ar controller. Redundant 500W power supplies keep the platform running through a module failure.

Memory ceiling

The installed 32GB matches the maximum capacity listed for this configuration, so no further DIMMs can be added without replacing modules. Twenty-four DDR4 slots exist across two processor sockets, but the current population already reaches the supported limit. Buyers who need more memory must plan a full module swap rather than a simple expansion.

Sustained operation

Dual hot-swap power supplies share the load continuously, preventing a single-point failure during long-running jobs. The 15K SAS drives and RAID controller maintain consistent throughput for database or virtualisation tasks without the thermal throttling seen in burst-only benchmarks. The Matrox G200eH2 graphics provides basic console output only, leaving all CPU cycles for compute workloads.

Questions about this item

What does the 2.4 GHz Xeon clock speed mean for real-world throughput?

The installed E5-2630 v3 runs eight cores at 2.4 GHz with 16 threads, so multi-threaded workloads scale across all cores while single-thread tasks stay at the base frequency.

How does the H240ar controller limit drive performance?

The H240ar connects at 12 Gbps SAS and 6 Gbps SATA, so the two 600 GB 15K SAS drives run at their native 6 Gbps link speed.

What clearance and power connections does the 2U chassis need?

The unit occupies 2U of rack height, uses two redundant 500 W hot-swap supplies, and provides 12 front 3.5-inch LFF bays with trays included.
